Extreme Courses

Extreme courses are wildly different from their GP counterparts. These races take place on the street and that can only mean one thing -- no rules. The bikes are faster, the roads aren't kept up to any sort of standard, and you'll spend a lot more time tuning your bike to each specific track.

Since Extreme bikes aren't held to the same standards as GP bikes, you'll find that these can actually powerslide without simply skidding out of control. While too much powersliding will still result in a crash, there are some instances where powersliding is more than helpful. Any time you're on a road full of sand or other rough terrain, powersliding is the key to taking turns tightly and under control. You'll also want to powerslide a little going around tight corners as it will allow you to straighten out your line faster which gives you better acceleration into the straights.

Andalucia

Andalucia is a very easy course. Minimal turns and few track obstacles mean you won't be doing much powersliding here. Keep it under control and use your bike tuned for speed.

Turn(s)Tips Turn 3Look for a straight line through the Turn 3 area. You'll gain precious time by not having to weave through this area.

Turn 7

Prepare the slight curve through Turn 7 on the bridge. If you wait until you cross it, you might miss your line. </td>
